                                                              be kind to your mind


We will be taking the NWEA tests for the next two weeks, so please try to avoid appointments in the mornings if possible. The reading test will be given Wednesday and will likely take the rest of the week to complete. The math test will be given on the 24th and extend throughout the rest of that week. Kids can bring gum or jolly ranchers to "wake up their brains" for the tests. I will let you know when we're done testing so you can help keep these items at home. Thanks for all your help!

A note went home last Thursday from Ms. Mileham, the music teacher. The 4th-grade performance will be on February 1st in the evening. Make sure to ask your child for the note if you have not yet received it. They are asked to wear red, white, and blue on the day of the performance since the theme is America. Hope to see you there!

                                                         Conferences are this week! Please click  here  to check your day & time. The kids have been working hard to complete their slides to present at the conferences. Due to the short time we have together & the length of the slides, I will most likely have you finish up your conference with your child in the hallway after our time is up. Last year the kids could finish at home, but with the Chromebooks staying here, that gets a little tricky. I will set up a desk with some chairs. Thanks for understanding! Laps for Lincoln kicked off this week! Our PTO generously donated shirts and has been busy counting all the donations. We are hopeful for another great turnout this year! Thank you! Hope to see you  at the big event  on Friday from 5:00-7:00!! We are wrapping up o...

                                                         This week begins the student council stuff-a-truck food donation collection.  Students are encouraged to bring any non-perishable food items to school each day. For a friendly competition, there will be a pizza party for the lower & upper el classes with the most donations. Thanks for your help in supporting our community! The Winn Dixie movie reward was a huge success! During the movie, kids were naturally comparing the movie to the book. It was fantastic to hear that the book was better and had more details! We enjoyed popcorn, pickles, Dump punch, and root beer & strawberry candy. Thanks to those who sent in items & thanks to Maggie for making & serving the punch! Since Friday is a half day and the end of the 1st trimester, we will have a read-in to celebrate all o...
